Abstract
This paper proposes a new type of dual-band patch antenna that employs a metamaterial transmission line and two coupled microstrip lines. An equivalent circuit model is presented and analyzed by using multi-conductor transmission line theory. An open ended design is presented for which the radiation pattern of the antenna is omnidirectional/unidirectional in the first and the second frequency bands, respectively.
